But unfortunately the woodchucks dug

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.

Through the goodness of Almighty Co.,
health, peace, prosperity, and security to person
and property have been accorded to the people
of Wisconsin the past year, and our industries
have received abundant rewards. Because of
these benefits it is due that we reverently, and
with sincere hearts, return thanks to Him for
His blessings
Now, therefore, in accordance with the procla
nation of the President of the United States, 1,
jeremiah M. Rusk, Governor of the State of Wis
consin, do hereby appoint Thursday, November
"a, 1887, as day of public thanksgiving ana
praise, and I recommend that on that day the
people of this State abstain from their usual vo-
cations, and meeting in their accustomed places
of worship return thanks for the innumerable
blessings bestowed upon them by the Supreme
Ruler, and that they remember by substantial
benefactions and kindly deeds, the poor and af-
hicted among them.
In testimony whereof, have hereunto set my
hand and caused the Great Seal of the
State to be affixed. Done at the Capt.
[sEAL. toll in Madison, this 9th day of Octo-
Der, in the year of our Lord one thous-
and eight hundred and eighty-seven.

THE REDISTRICTING MIDDLE.

In the redistricting of the state the leg
islature made 101 assembly districts,
whereas the constitution of Wisconsin
says there shall not be to exceed 100.
This fact was not discovered until after
the governor had signed the law and the
statesmen had departed for their homes.
The question now is neither it will be
necessary to call special session of the
legislature, weed out the one obnoxious
district and have the thing legal. Sena-
tor Buckstaff is of the opiuion that the
matter had better be decided by the
courts As means of bringing the mat
ter in the courts, he suggests that some
assemblyman ask that cause be shown
why part of his district has been cut off
by the act referred to. This might bring
the constitutionality of the law into ques-
ton and of course the law would be de-
clared void The election next fall would
then be held under the old law. Unless
some action of this kind shall be taken,
either an extra session must be hell or
else state politics will be terribly mixed
up at the next election. -OshkoSh Daily

which the people have imposed on the
president by the constitution and laws
they have adopted, this is not to rule but
to serve; and it is strange THAT Democrats
should be so dazzled by the position of d
man who has the appointment of post
masters and revenue officers under his
control as to think him ruler of the peo-
pie. As a ruler, Mr.. Cleveland is only
the ruler of the Democratic party, the
leaders of which concede that, whether
they like him or not, they dare not OPP
pose his wishes MilUaukee Sentinel.

WHEN Gen. Jackson, ia his speech at
the Georgia State fair Thursday, compared
the Southern rebellion to the home-rule
movement IN Ireland, he was guilty of
both impudence and falsehood. The re-
bellion was instituted for the purpose of
building up a government founded on
human slavery. The South had home
rule, such as Ireland seeks, before the
rebellion, and has it now. The South re-
belled, not to obtain home-rnle, but
against the best home-rule government
on earth.-Chicdqo Journal.

An Unjust Verdict.

Yesterday in the circuit court the
damage suit brought against Rule
& Marfield, publishers of the Knox
Vile Journal by Mary White, was
decided in favor of the plaintiff, the
jury awarding the complainant
81, 900 damages. This is very hard
verdict and we do not believe 1t can
stand when taken before tho Su-
preme Court. A publication was
made in the Journal in which the
name of Mary White appeared.
The reporter had written 1t Mag
White. The printer made a mis-
take and made the type say "Mary''
instead of "Mag." 1t was clearly
shown on the trial that there
was no malice in the publication.
Every fair minded man will say
that this verdict is oppressive and
unjust.-KnOxville Tribune.

AN ATTRACTIVE HAT.

The Wearer Of Which Attracted
Much Attention on Gay Street.
This morning about 9 O'Clock, the
attention ola Sentinel reporter was,
among many others, attracted by
the unusual beauty of a hat worn by
beautiful lady on Gay steet. The
reporter being somewhat addicted
to dissertations upon ladies' fash
ions, was struck with admiration
by its unique design and lovely
garnishments, and readily succum-
bed to the convincing fact that it
was far out of the ordinary, in con-
sequence of the universal attention
and comments of the casual obser-
vers upon the steet. Upon inquiry
our "Fashion" young man was
informed that this beautiful piece
of head gear was not the representa-
ton of some fashionable New York
milliner, but was the work of home
talent, being the production Of Mrs.
I: J. Rowley, one Of the best and
most artistic milliners in the coun.
try, whose millinery and domestic
art emporium is located at No. 81
Gay street. Our reporter called on
Mrs. Rowley and was surprised at
the vast array of birds of elegant
plumage, exquisite hats and bon.
nets, bric-a-brac, decorated vases
and fancy goods. Her store is
constantly thronged with purchas'
ers, and a corps of polite and
efficient salesladies are ready to
